BOSTON, Mass. & SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., May 23, 2011 – The Field Monitor Pro mobile monitor, a lightweight yet highly durable, portable clamshell display with USB connectivity, is now generally available to business travelers.  Designed with input from field auditors, the Field Monitor Pro from Mobile Monitor Technologies enables accounting, sales and marketing road warriors to be more productive.

“The Field Monitor Pro solves a key problem for traveling professionals who are accustomed to the high levels of efficiency provided by multiple displays at their main workstation,” said Larry Pensack, president of MMT. “It is a no-compromise second monitor that adapts beautifully to every situation on the road. It’s easy to carry, highly resistant to damage and makes getting things done just plain easier.”  

The Field Monitor Pro has several features that stand out for the mobile businessperson:

The Field Monitor Pro’s ultra-bright 15.4-inch backlit LED screen delivers 1280 x 800 pixels, and is adjustable to any angle. At approximately half the weight of similar-sized displays, its double-thick ABS-polycarbonate casing provides the unmatched durability.

“Mobile Monitor Technologies has delivered a portable display that many business travelers will find indispensable for dual-monitor work on the road,” said Dennis Crespo, executive vice president of marketing and business development at DisplayLink, which provides the USB connectivity included in the Field Monitor Pro. “This lightweight display is as large as some of the most popular notebook screens, its embedded keypad is a major benefit for accounting work, and with USB it’s quick and easy to setup.”

The Field Monitor Pro is ideal for applications such as sales presentations on the road or in public venues like airports, restaurants, and hotels, delivering screen brilliance in either portrait or landscape mode. It can be detached from its case and hung on the wall for a larger audience.

Priced at $289 MSRP, the Field Monitor Pro is backed by a one-year warranty and can be ordered through PC Connection by going to www.mmt2.com.

Field Monitor Pro Saves The Day

Our friends at Gear Diary received their Field Monitor Pro in the nick of time.  Read how it allowed them to better cover the Apple iPad2 launch from afar.

"Yes, I suddenly discovered one of the limitations of my 13″ MacBook air. While the screen is plenty big, in fact the 13″ MacBook air has the resolution of the 15″ MacBook Pro I was using last year, but trying to watch two feeds, and write a post and grab screen shots was all a bit too much for the size screen available to me. There just wasn’t enough space for all the windows that I needed and I was stumped as to what I might do to fix it. Then I remembered earlier that day that I had received two boxes that I had eagerly been anticipating since last January."

Imagine how Field Monitor Pro could make your job easier!

Industry’s First 15.4-inch, High-Quality, Takeable-Wherever-You-Travel Display

PALO ALTO, Calif., and BOSTON, Mass., Jan. 4, 2011 – Consumers and computing enthusiasts who enjoy using two or more full-size PC monitors at their desks can now get that same multi-monitor convenience and productivity while on the go.

DisplayLink and Mobile Monitor Technologies today announced MMT’s Monitor²Go – the first totally portable, yet desktop-quality, 15.4-inch display that’s easy for people to pack up, plug in, and put to use wherever they are. Another innovation to use DisplayLink USB virtual graphics, Monitor²Go combines a large display screen with a slim, lightweight clamshell design to give users true portable productivity.

The two companies will unveil Monitor²Go during the International CES show at the Las Vegas Convention Center, Jan. 6-9, 2011. At an estimated retail price of $279, Monitor²Go will be available to consumers later this quarter.

“Monitor²Go will be one of the most useful products shown at CES and that consumers can buy,” said Larry Pensack, MMT’s president. “It’s a high-quality, full-size display that can be used with virtually any notebook or desktop PC, and that you can be hung, stacked or set just about anywhere to expand your visual workspace and get more done faster. And with DisplayLink’s USB virtual graphics technology, there’s no connectivity or cable hassles.”

“Most multi-monitor fans are frustrated when they have to leave their desktop set-up behind and are limited to one screen while traveling,” said Dennis Crespo, DisplayLink executive vice president of marketing and business development. “By having a USB-connected portable display that is the same size as some of the most popular notebooks on the market, there is no more compromise necessary.”

Monitor²Go comes with a built-in stand that allows the screen to sit at eye level, like a notebook display, and to be positioned in either portrait or landscape mode. The device is also designed for hanging. Additionally, up to six screens can be daisy-chained off a host computer’s single USB port to create an instant video wall.

Besides being easy to connect via USB, other Monitor²Go features include a light weight of four pounds, a durable design to withstand travel rigors, and a sleek profile to slide into backpacks and briefcases. The 15.4-inch diagonal LED-backlit display provides a crisp 1280x800 resolution, and works with both PCs and Macs (beta). 

Private Monitor²Go demonstrations are available at the DisplayLink CES booth, MP25231 in the South Hall Lower Level of the Las Vegas Convention Center. To schedule a meeting, contact tradeshow@displaylink.com.
